Using UAD Plug-Ins

Loading UAD Plug-Ins

Each plug-in host application (Console and/or a DAW) has its own methods for loading
(aka instantiating, inserting, launching) and using plug-ins. To load UAD plug-ins within
Console, see Inserting UAD Plug-Ins. To load UAD plug-ins within a DAW, consult the
DAW documentation.

The UAD Plug-In Interface

One typical UAD plug-in interface is shown below. Each plug-in contains various control
parameters for modifying the sound of the plug-in, display-only elements (such as
meters) for visual feedback, and the UAD Toolbar. The UAD Toolbar is common to all
UAD plug-ins, and is displayed at the bottom of the interface.

Controls View
Some DAW applications have an alternate plug-in display mode feature called Controls
View, Parameter Mode, or similar terminology. This mode displays the control parameters
as a list with simple sliders, switches, and menus (the appearance is controlled by the
DAW), which some users may prefer. Consult the DAW documentation for how to display
this view. Controls view is not available within Console.
